Hive Open Mic ( #openmic ) is a global community of music lovers, for music fans and musicians. Each week is a new invitation for expression and connection.
Hive Open Mic
Week 14: July 12-18, 2020
Our Hive Open Mic community is a haven for creative expression and genuine connection. Every contributor can be proud of the fact we are building a live music movement, celebrating songs with an international audience. At a time in human history when many are lonesome and fearful, it is vital that we bring the gift of music to help us harmonize on a heart level.
Invitation
"Fire Starter"
The theme for Hive Open Mic Week 14 is: "Fire Starter." To enter this event, you'll express yourself creatively with a song that helps us to explore the current theme. Our weekly theme encourages us to connect in the creative space as we explore new territory together. Original songs and cover songs are welcomed. All musical forms and genres are OK.
Guidelines
- Produce - Begin your video with the words: “This is Hive Open Mic Week [1] and I am [@username],” substituting the current week and your own username, and then you'll sing your song.
- Present - Post your video on Hive, writing the story of your creative journey with the song, and tagging #openmic.
- Promote - Share your link in the comments section of Sunday's open mic invitation in order to be highlighted.
- Prosper - Enjoy harmony with the Hive community by engaging with musicians and music fans through upvotes and encouraging comments.

I don't know if you remember me but I remember you fondly from the Steemit Vision Quest. With that contest you helped me to lose the fear of being creative and show it, I appreciate it. ✨Blessings✨
